Continue in Prayer!

As we continue in our series on prayer, please continue pray.  Within our own church family we have real, difficult situations.  Pray for marriages, jobs, faith, victory, health, and wisdom.  Continue to pray for those outside our church family as well... our neighbours, coworkers, family, and friends.

This morning we had nine people out for pre-service prayer... a new record!  We moved into Room 105 where there is space for even more to gather and pray.  Of course you can continue praying on your own, or on Thursday morning at 8:30am with the Ewert's, or call someone up and pray!  Prayer matters because prayer changes our world and it changes us.

Last week the challenge was to fast something.  This week the challenge is to get alone with God and be bold enough to lower the walls and be yourself before God... open your heart to Him.  Give Him every emotion and thought you have.  He's big enough to handle not only your praise, but your hurt, your hate, your doubts, complaints, despair, depression, anger, rage, ... Give your heart to Him and allow Him to speak to you as your pray your heart to Him.  If you struggle in doing this, start by praying the Psalms... they are God's gift to us to teach us how to pray.
